Stephen Jamison. ALthough I always thought mike was much cuter - when I
first got on the net back in the olden days of Lynx, in 1993/4, the
first mailing lists I got onto were Tomorrow People and Crowded House -
until I found that site, I thought I was the only person in the US who
still watched the show. It was my introduction to british tv and british
books.
I also posted in the alt.tv.nickelodeon newsgroup, and I remember for a
time Kevin Kubecheski (did I spell that right) was posting there while
at film school in canada somewhere. It was pretty cool.
There are a few websites like http://www.angelfire.com/tv2/classicnick/
and http://www.geocities.com/mystiemei/pinwheel.html (which I like more
because it's got the earlier stuff on it) - the stuff I loved like the
game show where you got to play video games, the 3rd eye, the bext years
of YCDTOT and of course, livewire and those 30 minute segments about
children who were phtographers or dancers or ice skaters - that kind of
thing.
And how many times did I watch the Raggedy Ann & Andy movie with the
Camel with the Wrinkley Knees?
